Ingredients

Popsicles

1.5 cups unsweetened coconut water
1 cup fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries)
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp fine sea salt
Notes

Eat one popsicle within 30 minutes of finishing a hot or hard run. The cold helps drop core temperature while the coconut water and added salt replace electrolytes. Use any fresh fruit you have on hand, berries and watermelon work especially well. Will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months.
